Empathy is why we are here

[Taverner]

Empathy is why we are anywhere

Let's face it, that most noble of characteristics in the homo sapien, that is empathy, needs its due share of praise.

Homo Sapiens Sapiens is not the first animal to show empathy.

Elephants, whales, chimps, bonobos, porpoises and dolphins have this characteristic.

Or potential.


If you ask why you are where you are, look back to empathy.
